- It's REALLY powerful. You'll get dirt out of your carpet that you didn't know you had.
- It's so powerful because it forms a 'sealed' chamber around the brush roller
- The downside to that sealed chamber is it will suck up any thin or lightweight rugs instantly. There's no power setting to tone it down a bit. You can turn the brush rollers off though.
- It's not compatble with high pile carpet/rugs. The brushes will stop.
- The build quality is suprisingly poor. The plastic creaks, things that look like handles aren't for carrying the vacuum around.
- The chord is VERY long, which I like. You can plug it in a central location and reach nearly every room on the floor.
- It's easy to empty, but debris tends to get stuck in the filter quite a bit (especially pet hair). You may have to dig it out with your hand.
- The attachments work very well. If you have a dog the lint brush attachement will keep your couch nice and clean.
- It's a bit heavy, and like I said, the built quality makes you feel like you need to baby it when you lift it up.
- Everything is modular on it, so it's easy to repair and service.
All in all, I like the performance, but I don't think I'd buy another one. Similar models by Shark are made with better materials and have similar performance.

I am struggling which one to buy:
1. Costco for $280, with extra Tangle-free turbine tool
2. Dyson for $299, with extra Soft dusting brush, multi-angle brush, articulating hard floor tool, and carbon fiber soft dusting brush.
I think main question is: how useful are the extra tools.
